Snooki was paid more money to speak at Rutgers University in New Jersey than Pulitzer Prize-winning author Toni Morrison will receive for delivering the school’s commencement speech in May, leaving some people a bit dismayed.
The “Jersey Shore” star bagged $32,000 for headlining an event at the school yesterday called “Inside the Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi Studio,” where she talked about her life as a reality star and self-proclaimed “guidette.”
Her advice to students?
“Study hard, but party harder.”
Morrison, who undoubtedly will have different advice for the graduates, is being paid $30,000 to give the school’s graduation speech next month - $2,000 less than Snooki.
